The town’s public police log indicated that on Jan. 19, police received a report of a break-in on Post Road. Police confirmed the incident occurred at 517 Post Road, which was the home of Cullen Mutrie, 29, the man who wounded four officers and killed former Police Chief Michael Maloney in a shootout on April 12, 2012.

Police Chief Tara Laurent said that Mutrie’s mother, Beverly Mutrie, reported the burglary after finding an open door when checking on the home. Investigators found that someone removed an estimated 30 feet of copper piping from the residence, Laurent said.

“No one’s living there, so I think we have a three- to four-week window when it could have happened,” she said.

There are currently no suspects and no leads, the chief said. Police canvassed the neighborhood, but no residents reported seeing anything suspicious, she said.

Laurent said the town has not experienced a rash of similar burglaries in recent weeks, but the crime is a common one, particularly when a home is obviously vacant. She said thieves will often strip copper piping from summer camps and seasonal homes in the off-season.

She said she does not believe that someone targeted the home because of the incident that occurred there last year. Mutrie also killed his girlfriend before taking his own life.

Despite the long-term impact that event had on the town, Laurent said it is not hard for officers to put that behind them and try to solve the crime.

“It’s very easy to feel for any victim of a crime and want to get anyone out there who’s doing anything wrong,” she said.

The four officers with the N.H. Drug Task Force who were wounded in the shooting have filed a civil suit against Beverly Mutrie, claiming she was responsible for their injuries.

Less than a month after the shooting, someone vandalized the home by spray-painting the words “Cop Killer” and vulgar language on the siding. Laurent said that case has not been solved, but the investigation is still open.

Police said anyone who has information on the burglary should call Greenland Police at 431-4624.
